Every ACE XML appliance has a version number that identifies the appliance’s software with a
particular release. This information is often required when contacting Cisco support or to ensure that all
appliances in a cluster are running the same software version.

To obtain version information from the ACE XML appliance:

Step 1

Log into the appliance shell as the

root

user.

Step 2

In the Main Menu, choose the Advanced Options menu item.

The Advanced Options menu appears.

Step 3

Choose the Version Information menu item.

The release identifier string appears as a banner at the top of the screen. In the center of the screen, the
appliance displays version numbers of the currently-installed Gateway software, operating system
kernel, Tarari XML coprocessor card firmware (this option information refers to a hardware add-on
option that is no longer available), and nForce hardware keystore card firmware.
